Using alternative package indexes
While uv uses the official Python Package Index (PyPI) by default, it also supports alternative package indexes. Most alternative indexes require various forms of authentication, which requires some initial setup.
Azure Artifacts
uv can install packages from
Azure DevOps Artifacts.
Authenticate to a feed using a
Personal Access Token
(PAT) or interactively using the keyring package.
Using a PAT
If there is a PAT available (eg
$(System.AccessToken) in an Azure pipeline),
credentials can be provided via the "Basic" HTTP authentication scheme. Include the PAT in the
password field of the URL. A username must be included as well, but can be any string.
# With the token stored in the `ADO_PAT` environment variable
export UV_EXTRA_INDEX_URL=https://dummy:$ADO_PAT@pkgs.dev.azure.com/{organisation}/{project}/_packaging/{feedName}/pypi/simple/
Using keyring
If there is not a PAT available, authenticate to Artifacts using the
keyring package with
the artifacts-keyring plugin. Because these two
packages are required to authenticate to Azure Artifacts, they must be pre-installed from a source
other than Artifacts.
The artifacts-keyring plugin wraps
the Azure Artifacts Credential Provider tool.
The credential provider supports a few different authentication modes including interactive login —
see the tool's documentation for information
on configuration.
uv only supports using the keyring package in
subprocess mode.
The keyring executable must be in the PATH, i.e., installed globally or in the active
environment. The keyring CLI requires a username in the URL, so the index URL must include the
default username VssSessionToken.
# Pre-install keyring and the Artifacts plugin from the public PyPI
uv tool install keyring --with artifacts-keyring
# Enable keyring authentication
export UV_KEYRING_PROVIDER=subprocess
# Configure the index URL with the username
export UV_EXTRA_INDEX_URL=https://VssSessionToken@pkgs.dev.azure.com/{organisation}/{project}/_packaging/{feedName}/pypi/simple/
Other indexes
uv is also known to work with JFrog's Artifactory, the Google Cloud Artifact Registry, and AWS Code Artifact.
